Spyder Version: 2.2.4
Python Version: 2.7.5
Qt Version : 4.7.4, PySide 1.1.2 on Darwin
pyflakes >=0.5.0: 0.7.3 (OK)
pep8 >=0.6 : 1.4.6 (OK)
IPython >=0.13 : 1.0.0 (OK)
rope >=0.9.2 : 0.9.4 (OK)
sphinx >=0.6.6 : 1.1.3 (OK)
matplotlib >=1.0: 1.3.0 (OK)
sympy >=0.7.0 : 0.7.3 (OK)
pylint >=0.25 : None (NOK)

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Run up Spyder and type into an existing program 2. 3. What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Please provide any additional information below

. It seems to slow down in that the editor does not keep up with the normal rate of key presses on the keyboard as you type. There are times when this makes spyder unusable, which is a real shame as spyder is excellent!
